Chris Martin was married to Gwyneth Paltrow for years and was rumoured to be dating Jennifer Lawrence, but these Hollywood babes didn’t inspire Coldplay’s track, A Sky Full Of Stars.
Katy Perry was the woman behind the band’s hit song, according to the lead singer Chris Martin.
According to the musician, he was inspired by the California Gurl’s style of writing songs, which he adopted for the hit track.

“I’ll tell you the truth. I was listening to a lot of Katy Perry,” Chris explained.
"A lot of her songs have the same chord sequence the whole time. Your body feels comfortable with them and then the melody's changing on top so there's a groove you really get in to and then also you're kept interested... So I was like, 'That's an amazing way of doing songs.'"
"So I was like f**k it! I love that stuff. So I wanted to have a song that comes from that world."

"He did a full Avicii version, we did a full Coldplay version, and we spent weeks weaving it all together."
